Carena:I had been lying awake in bed, shifting anxiously. Sawyer had messed me up pretty badly. I didn’t even know who I could trust anymore.The door creaked open, and I quickly closed my eyes to pretend I was asleep. Footsteps wandered around and reached me. I couldn’t understand why, but Sawyer’s scent filled the air, as if he was too close for comfort.I cracked my eyes open just a little and saw Sawyer hunched over me, examining me closely. He suddenly let out a laugh and straightened his back. I shut my eyes again and gritted my teeth angrily. The fact that he could still laugh was unsettling.“I brought you food. You didn’t eat anything at your own wedding ceremony,” Sawyer said in a husky voice.I remained still, not wanting to speak to him or see his face. He went silent for a moment before heading into the bathroom and locking the door.Sneakily, I got up and tiptoed to the table, peering into the food bag. He wasn’t lying; he had brought a little bit of everything--from sa
Carena:I went back into the room and waited for his arrival. As expected, he suddenly barged in, shirtless."Why do you wake up so early every morning?" he asked casually, walking over to the bed."Where were you?" I inquired. He lay down, folding his arm over his eyes."Here!" That was not very helpful. I remained sitting, watching him as he dozed off without a care in the world.There was something seriously going on, and I was determined to find out what it was. I fell asleep as well after pondering ways I could keep an eye on him.It reminded me of the time when I tried to catch him on his feet back when he used to be 'disabled.' I was never successful back then, but times and circumstances have changed now.Waking up to find out he had already left to discuss pack war was a relief. I didn't want him around me all the time.Janine asked me what I would like for breakfast and I insisted I eat in my bedroom. She was more than happy to oblige since she knew I hated going out of my r
Carena:"Can you tell me why Matt didn't want you to come to my wedding? He doesn't know we're friends!" I attempted to start the conversation in a light mood."It's not that. You know about Matt; he doesn't like your husband. Please don't tell Sawyer, but Matt thinks now that you're married to him, you are just like him," she whispered, taking little breaths.I knew Matt hated Sawyer, but thinking I was just like him was too much."Carena! Don't look so sad. I don't think the same. I know you're a good person, and maybe Sawyer is just misjudged," she said, then instantly fell silent after defending Sawyer."Don't tell me you can't even take a side," I sighed. Of course, Yamin would agree with Matt. But for what reason?"You need to understand that he has a very good reason to dislike Sawyer," she said, watching me raise my brow as I waited for her to explain."A few years ago, Matt's sister started working for Sawyer. Ellie was the nicest soul ever, but somehow, she managed to get wa
Carena:"Payton, let's go home," I said, eyeing her, but she dismissed me with a hand gesture.Yamin didn't say anything and stood beside me, whimpering into her palms. The way Matt glanced at her showed he didn't care about Payton."So, let's start the acceptance," Matt said, lifting his hand and gesturing at the crowd, who cheered.I could tell some of them sensed something bad was about to happen. They seemed overly interested, their phones already pointed at the two."Matt, you don't want to do it like that," I almost pleaded, but he shrugged me off. Payton gave me a deadly glare, warning me not to interfere with the acceptance process. The two faced each other while Yamin pulled her body close to mine and hugged me.She was crying for no reason. This whole stunt was never meant to hurt her."I, Payton wolf--" she began, but Matt hushed her."Let me go first," he insisted, and she nodded."I, Matt--" he paused as Yamin lifted her head from my chest and met his eyes.His smirk disa
Carena:As we sat in the car and she cried the rest of the way, I pondered on what would happen now. Was Yamin clueless, or did Matt use her too?I was going crazy with this new issue that came out of nowhere. On top of it, I skipped going to work today. Theodore wasn’t picking up my calls anymore, so I assumed he was still angry or probably upset with me.“Brother will be so angry with me,” Payton uttered under her breath, sniffling and clearing her tears. I didn’t respond to her, but I was sure Sawyer would not only be angry with her but he might even punish Matt too.What the heck was Matt thinking, messing with the Alpha King’s sister like that? If he somehow survived Sawyer, he would not survive Ronan, who couldn’t be stopped by any means.What about his grandmother? I had so many questions in my mind.I took Payton home, where I didn’t know the whole news of her rejection had already spread. Once I stepped into the house, Lady Jane approached me angrily and pushed me to the side
Carena: “What are you thinking of doing?” I watched Sawyer sit on the couch for two hours, just staring at the ceiling.“Why do you care?” he asked in a rough voice.“Sawyer, I just want you to know that Yamin didn’t know. She was genuinely crying--” As I began to take her side, he lifted his head and stared at me.“I am not picking any sides, but I think it was Matt’s plan. Just let me speak to Yamin and let her know that those men who attacked her were hired by Matt,” I said, unsure how else to convince Sawyer that Yamin was innocent. Since he had stepped into the bedroom, he hadn't even spoken a word. It sent chills down my spine.What if those two become his new victims? What then?“You will not speak to her or anyone. I told you, I don't want anyone to be a part of this whole mess. I will deal with it alone now,” Sawyer made sure he spoke clearly when making that statement.“You cannot stop me from speaking to my friend,” I said, now understanding that asking him nicely wouldn’t
Carena: “Sawyer!” His name left my lips, but my body didn’t resist. He ran his free hand over my neck, down to my breast, and then groped it, compelling me to arch my back and close my eyes. After massaging my breasts over my clothes for a while, he lifted my shirt to my neck, freeing my breasts from my bra and instantly pinching my nipple.I grimaced with ecstasy. His fingers touching my areolas gave me a different kind of pleasure. It was like I wanted him to hurt my tits, to make them bleed, and then drink the juice.He played around with his fingers before burying his face in my chest and planting little kisses over my breasts. The gentleness of his kisses caused my breaths to increase. The softness of his lips against my hard nipple completed our desires.But he wasn’t done yet. While he sucked my entire breast, trying to force it into his whole mouth, his hand reached for my stomach and then slipped down until it was inside my pants.My eyes shot open, watching the ceiling as h
Carena: I had fallen asleep beneath him after completely losing myself in my deeply hidden desires. I'm not sure how long we stayed like that, but when my sleep finally started to break, I found my body nicely covered with a blanket, though there was no sign of Sawyer again.It was almost 3 a.m., shocking that I had slept so much. I got up and looked around the room, finding it empty. Even the bathroom was empty."Wow, I feel sore," Arena giggled as her thoughts lingered on her mate and the sex."Don't you think we should be concerned about him being missing once again?" I rolled my eyes at her, hoping she would remember that what we did yesterday was far from ideal."He must be somewhere," she scoffed at me, entirely dismissing my concerns."Arena, no!" I grunted. "This is exactly why I am regretting it. You are losing yourself. Don't forget there's a high chance he's a serial killer. Do you think we're safe from him? Or that our loved ones or the pack members don't deserve justice?
